Professional tool for the park

Get in, select personalized settings, drive off – this is now possible with all PistenBully vehicles, in a completely identical manner. Because the new PistenBully 400 completes the family: An entire generation with identical operating comfort and convenience, with the cleanest exhaust technology and the most attractive performance – and all this in the familiar quality.  

What remains of the old PistenBully 400 is its perfect balance of force and weight and its outstanding maneuverability thanks to its compact dimensions. What is new and significantly better is the clean engine, the comfort cockpit and the intuitive operation that is also part of the PistenBully 100 and 600 vehicles. The assistance systems are also new, which makes driving even easier. Completely prepared for SNOWsat. 

Building parks without the PistenBully 400 ParkPro has been unthinkable for quite a while. The 400 ParkPro is considered the professional tool for more creativity and perfection in the snow park. A highlight of the new generation is the completely overhauled auxiliary equipment – the ProBlade and, above all, the ProFlexTiller.

The park specialist – the PistenBully 400 in its ParkPro model variant: Developed in cooperation with the best operators and shapers in the world. Adjusted to the luxury of the new generation. Equipped with everything you could want for grooming snow parks.  
 

ProBlade

The ProBlade makes edges even sharper. Its distinct side edges, corners and side cutter shape kickers in even greater detail. The new OneTouchStraight function sets the blade straight without limiting the movement of the side wings forwards or backwards.

Transport tines

Hydraulic control for the easy transport of rails, fun boxes and other park accessories. One person can do this even unassisted. Ideal for competitions.  

ProMount swap system

With ParkPro kinematics and reinforced cylinders. No adapter frame necessary.  

Park button

Control of the rear carrier via joystick for intuitive operation when building a park and for more comfort when coupling the tiller. 

Auxiliary hydraulics

Faster response characteristics with direct and proportional control of all functions. 

ProFlexTiller

The ProFlexTiller, with its expanded flex angles, offers a freeze function that can record the existing ground contour in a floating position and lock it hydraulically afterwards. The new hydraulic system also allows for approaching any position, including its end positions, hydraulically.

Chassis and chains

Fully overhauled – the new main frame, the stronger tensioning axle and larger drive pumps. 

The new 6-band CombiPlus chain is extremely durable and stable. It conquers every slope and is easy to steer. Stable and capable of climbing! 

Implement carrier

The new implement carrier is specially optimized for its main area of application and includes vibration compensation and damping as standard equipment. And it allows for enormous movement radii in park building in particular.

Flexibility is the advantage of the new ProBlade. Integrated hydraulic transport tines are the ideal solution for moving park equipment. The sharp side cutters shape kickers with ideal cutting edges. The OneTouchStraight function sets the blade straight at the push of a button. The wings can nevertheless be tilted backwards for better snow transport.

Driver's cab 

The operator is in focus. Our cab achieves this principle with comfort, ergonomics and intuitive operation. Large windows, a perfect arrangement and ideal lighting provide a good overview, especially at night. Optimized ventilation and a sun sensor for automatic heating and air conditioning regulation ensure an optimum cab climate. And lest we forget – there are various storage options and beverage holders!

Winch of PistenBully 400
Winch

The AutoWinch is perfectly compatible with the vehicle thanks to cutting-edge technology and provides safety on the slope with corresponding pulling force, active steering and automatic winch force control. All-automatic if desired.

ProFlexTiller

The ProFlexTiller, with its enlarged flex angle and V and A positions, provides optimum adaptation to the properties of the slope. The Freeze function does not just allow operators to approach any position but also to map each and every contour.

Semi-circular steering wheel 

As an alternative option to the stick steering: The semi-circular steering wheel can be steplessly adjusted in the horizontal level and is easy to grip in your hand. The operator steers the PistenBully without any difficulty and finds the most important functions directly in the steering.

Engine of PistenBully 400
Larger tank volume

Even though fuel consumption is lower, it has considerably more power and torque than the predecessor model. Longer range thanks to larger tank volume (360 L) for efficient and economical operation.

Diesel particulate filter

Environmentally friendly fleet: Equipped with a clean 6-cylinder engine with 435 metric HP, including a diesel particulate filter, the PistenBully 400 also meets EU Stage V / EPA Tier 4 final.  

Compact engine

Compact engine with simple design. Fewer complicated components and improved access. Straightforward and easy to service; less prone to malfunction and faults. 

Thanks to higher torque and better power-to-weight ratio, the PistenBully 400 is the most powerful vehicle in its class with the best pushing power and gradability! 

Stronger power transmission

Thanks to larger drive pumps and an optimized gear ratio, the speed and tractive force increase significantly.

MAXIMUM TRACKING STABILITY
AutoTracer

Rear implement carrier with intelligent, active steering assistance. Possible in both fixed position (locked) and floating position (released). Automatic steering support while cornering. Automatic counter-steering on cross-slopes. For automatic support and reduction of the driver's workload!

Assistance systems of PistenBully 400: AutoWinch
OPTIMAL PULLING FORCE
AutoWinch

Intelligent winch with automatic tension control. Activated at the control panel. Matches driving speed and winch rope speed. If there is a deviation, for instance, because of slip, tractive force is increased. Manual override if necessary. Less wear and tear on the winch rope, less strain on the operator.

RESOURCE-CONSERVING SNOW MANAGEMENT
SNOWsat snow depth measurement

The high-precision snow depth measurement helps the operator detect slope areas with small amounts of snow and identify snow reserves – under, in front of and on both sides of the vehicle. This way snow can be pushed with precision and maximum quality can be achieved for the slope structure. Increases productivity while conserving resources and helping to preserve the environment.

AutoWinch 
Rope speed exactly matched to driving speed by means of automatic tractive force control. Manual override if necessary. Less wear and tear on the winch rope, less strain on the operator.

Active winch, maximum tracking stability 
Electronically and proportionally activated capstan winch pump. Enables automatic co-steering by the winch. Optimum steering properties even in difficult slope conditions and with a lateral tensile load.

Constant tractive force, new capstan winch
The capstan drive ensures a consistently high tractive force and rope speed regardless of the remaining rope length on the reel. The advantage: more safety, especially at high driving speeds.
